Summer Night Dementia

Is it me or is it them who should say,
What's right or wrong.
I've been driving along this road,
For much too long.
 
The tension in the air has taken flight,
An eon has gone past.
The bones are chilling,
It's so hard to say.
 
Is it us or is it them,
Who has gone away.
The years are getting shorter,
As the color of life starts to fade away.
 
The tension in the air has taken flight,
An eon has gone past.
The bones are chilling,
I thought I had something more to say.  
 
I can see my Achilles heel,  
The horses are catching up with me.  
The tired days of sunshine washed in rain,
I wonder if I could ever touch my dream.
 
Here I'm bound,
The dog days have come.
Insecurities are eating me,
As I dig my life away.  
 
No one ever told me to run,
As I tick my time away.
There's no place to return,
As the stars wish me goodbye.
 
Does it matter what I did,
With all these pent up thoughts,
Life's a never-ending maze,
As you try to catch up.
